Oneuli, set within Mākena State Park on Maui’s dry south coast, offers the same deep-black sand and frequent wildlife encounters with far fewer visitors and none of the logistical hurdles.

Five days is all you need to score Kaua‘i’s essential canyons, cliffs, waterfalls, and beaches without marathon drives. Spend two nights in Waimea for red-dirt vistas, then three in Hanalei for north-shore reefs and taro-valley views. One daylight drive a day—never longer than 80 minutes—keeps the steering to a minimum and the scenery to a maximum. • Summer (Jun–Aug) – Hot, calm ocean on the north shore, south-shore surf naps. Great snorkel visibility; carry extra water on canyon hikes.

If Waikiki feels too crowded, Lanikai Beach offers a peaceful retreat on Oahu’s windward coast.

Lanikai sits in the residential town of Kailua, roughly a 30–40 minute drive from Honolulu.

As the sun dips below the horizon in Kona, you paddle out into darkness. Floating under a canopy of stars, you watch light beams dance in the water — and then, like magic, a massive manta ray glides into view. Wings outstretched, it spins gracefully beneath you, feeding on clouds of plankton. It’s a surreal, almost spiritual experience — and one of the most unforgettable things you can do on the Big Island.

It’s 7:00 a.m. in Lahaina, and the ocean is still. From the deck of a small catamaran, you scan the horizon — and then it happens. A 40-ton humpback whale breaches just 100 yards away. Welcome to Maui in whale season, one of the island’s most extraordinary natural spectacles. Each winter, thousands of North Pacific humpback whales migrate from Alaska to the warm, shallow waters around Maui to breed and give birth.
